Frequently asked questions

What is the FRC8709 gearchange E-clip used for?
The FRC8709 is a spring-steel E-clip for the automatic transmission gearchange linkage. It seats in a groove on a pivot pin and retains the gearchange selector components and the cable-block connection in axial location. It's used on Defender, Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic automatic gearchange assemblies.
Where does this E-clip sit in the gearchange?
This E-clip sits on a pivot pin within the automatic transmission gearchange, securing the selector components where the linkage meets the cable block. On Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic it forms part of the gearchange and shift-interlock assembly.
Should the gearchange E-clip be replaced when removed?
Replace the E-clip whenever it's removed. Spring-steel clips typically weaken once sprung off the pivot pin, and a loose clip can let the gearchange linkage separate. It's also supplied as part of the gearchange service kit.
Which vehicles does this E-clip fit?
This E-clip fits automatic gearchange linkages on Defender (1987-2006), Discovery 1 and Range Rover Classic. Discovery 1 fitment runs from VIN MA081990, with shift-interlock variants from VIN HA012332, so use your VIN to confirm the correct linkage.
